Traditional Thai Jewellery

Post by J.J.B. »

My daughter is doing a school project to design jewellery and has chosen Thailand as her inspiration. Does anybody here have any pieces that they think reflect Thai culture and design or have any idea as to what epitomises this? I don't think she'll get a good grade for copying some of the Tiffany and Pandora knock-off stuff from the night market so anything you think might help would be gratefully received.

Cheers,

Just googled 'Thai Royal Jewellery', click on images and she should find lots of idea and inspiration there.

Have her browse the images on this website. They are supposed to be the premiere gold jewelry company in Thailand:

Hover the mouse over "products" and then select "collections". A list of their collections will show up and she can browse through each collection to see all the designs.

My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Thanks for the recommendations, everyone, much obliged. The little princess is most grateful and has assured me that your ideas are going to be added to her 'tech mood board'. No, I'm not sure either! As and when she wins some amazing award for her efforts, I'll ensure you're all included in dispatches!

Cheers,
